Ric Flair Says He Wants To Wrestle Right Now, Thinks He Should Have Chosen Ricky Morton For Last Match
On July 31, 2022, Ric Flair competed in his last match, teaming with Andrade El Idolo to take on Jeff Jarrett & Jay Lethal.
Flair admitted he got dehydrated in the match and that led to things being cut from the match and his performance being what it was.
Speaking to Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Flair was asked if he still wanted to wrestle.
“I want to wrestle right now. Isn’t that crazy? Ricky Morton, a guy I should have chosen for my last match. Ricky Morton is still wrestling. You know what the best thing about it for me was? I forced myself to really get in shape. I heard from guys over the years when they were older and I was in my prime, the older guys would say, ‘I’m tired of working out.’ There gets a time where you get bored working out if you don’t have a goal. They gave me a goal and I attacked it. I didn’t stop drinking or anything. I was literally training three hours a day, five days a week,” he said.
Flair has not wrestled since his last match and it is unknown if he will return to the ring.
